HS BASEBALL: Meusborn, LaCour reunited again in Dominican Republic

Chatsworth coach Tom Meusborn and Harvard-Westlake coach Matt LaCour – Meusborn’s former assistant at Chatsworth – were together again this past week, coaching the 15-under USA National team to a 3-0 record in the Dominican Republic.

“It was fun working together again. It was kind of like old times,” LaCour said.

Blake Rutherford, an incoming freshman at Chaminade, played outfield and started all three games.

“We beat two teams from Dominican Republic and one from Puerto Rico,” LaCour said. “The talent out there was pretty evident, but we were a little better at playing the game of baseball, as far as knowing where to be and that kind of stuff.”

The best part was visiting a poor town and donating gloves and equipment the players had gathered before making the trip.

“That was a pretty neat experience. It put things in perspective,” LaCour said.
